PROMINENT SOCIALIST LAUDS OBAMA'S 'UNDER THE RADAR' WORK

One half of the 1960's duo who called for the crashing of the U.S. economy by flooding welfare and entitlement programs, said last month that she is very impressed with what Barack Obama is doing 'under the radar.' Frances Fox Piven, the female half of the Cloward-Piven strategy developed at Columbia University in the 1960's is considered a hero by the Progressive movement. That would be the same Columbia attended by Barack Obama and William Ayers.

Via Discover the Networks:
In their 1966 article, Cloward and Piven charged that the ruling classes used welfare to weaken the poor; that by providing a social safety net, the rich doused the fires of rebellion. Poor people can advance only when "the rest of society is afraid of them," Cloward told The New York Times on September 27, 1970. Rather than placating the poor with government hand-outs, wrote Cloward and Piven, activists should work to sabotage and destroy the welfare system; the collapse of the welfare state would ignite a political and financial crisis that would rock the nation; poor people would rise in revolt; only then would "the rest of society" accept their demands.
It should be easy to see that Barack Obama embraces this strategy; he IS using it. The proponents of it in the 1960's were also fans of Saul Alinsky, a man whose work Obama places at the front of his playbook.

On September 20, 2010 Fox Piven spoke at the Brecht Forum, a place where socialists, marxists, and communists speak freely. Here is the excerpt from Piven in which she lauds the work Obama has done but people don't notice it because it has been "under the radar."

VIDEO: MUSLIM CLERIC IN GREAT BRITAIN ADMITS TO TERRORISM ON CNN

Anjem Choudary is probably the most well known Muslim cleric in Great Britain. In interviews, he's always taken his rhetoric right up to the line; it's likely how he got to be so well known. However, in an interview with CNN's Kathleen Parker and Eliot Spitzer, Choudary crosses the line completely. When asked by Spitzer if he is communicating with people in the United States and encouraging them to participate in terror attacks, Choudary actually says, 'Of course I am.'

I'm actually glad this happened on CNN with a couple of leftwing hosts. Perhaps now they'll start waking up.

VIDEO: CHRIS MATTHEWS' THRILL OVER NAZI HYPOCRISY

This video montage starts with Chris 'my leg is tingling' Matthews on April 28th, imploring people not to use the 'Nazi' reference when arguing against Obamacare. His point, which could have been argued had some merit, was that if you disagree with something or someone, take the time necessary to actually debate without defaulting to the Nazi reference, thereby ending or at least changing the argument.

The video then jumps to the week of October 25th and the issue is a Rand Paul supporter stomping on the shoulder / head of a rabble rouser who actually had already gotten too close to Paul for the Secret Service's liking. Matthews dug into his bag of strong arguments and kept pulling out the 'Nazi' reference.

Uh, hypocrisy anyone?
